that's exactly what had to be done burkhardt became paralyzed after a twenty ten diving accident but now ohio state university wexner medical center has just had a breakthrough discovery that may help many quadriplegics across the globe they were able to get in burkhardt to move his hand with the power of thought doctors neuroscientists and engineers from battell were able to implement cutting edge technology by installing a chip directly into ian's brain dr allie resume and stalled the chip in the area of the brain that controls the movement of the hand engineers at patel develop software algorithms and a sleeve which transmits thoughts and neurons from the brain directly into the arm in less than a tenth of a second the signals are then taken from the chip and bypass the injury in the spinal cord linking the signals directly to the muscles in the arm other technologies used in the past have been robotics exoskeletons or computers to move muscles but this is the first using just the power of thought pretty cool and that does it for now for more on the stories we just cover go to you

i'm with the hall of famer frank thomas, i'm kevin burkhardt.me losing streak and they defeat the mets here tonight. you look at this game, frank, and you're talking about two teams that are obviously not having great years. and look at some trades. how about bartolo colon. even though he didn't pitch great tonight he still gave you innings. i don't know. i think he's an attractive piece. what do you think some. >> that's an interesting question, kevin. he's 41 years old, been around the league, still throws strikes, still has a great arm. he could be a swing man for a few teams. the obvious choice would be yankees. he could come in and get outs. that's important. they'll need someone to help stable i'd their rotation. bartolo would be a good fit there. the orioles and the tigers and also the angels. >> you have a lot of teams on that list. >> i think he could be an interesting piece for all those guys. he's a middle of the rotation type of guy now, but he throws strikes and knows how to get outs. >> it makes an awful lot of sense for the yankee
